Progression has been wiped and Loadouts have been reset!

<nowiki>*</nowiki>Purchased Cosmetics and Founders Packs are still owned*

‍'''Queues'''

* Ranked added as the final Security Level - Ultra Max: Ranked
* Ranked features Reputation as it was in previous builds.
* There is a required Reputation cost for entry into the Security Level for any players above 1800 Reputation.
* Picking up enemy Dog Tags grants Reputation in a match.
* Extracting will refund the Reputation entry cost for the match.
* Adjusted some queue names.
* Queues unlock at various Levels (XP), not all queues available at season start and will be added over time
* Updating queue select flow (select queue, then hit play)
* Added notion of max gear rarity.
* Added description field to queues.
* Updated Security levels with new loot tables and bot spawns.
* 5 new "Specialty Queues" have been added, with unique rules. This included making new modes, new loot drops, new Cybrid spawn rates, new maps, and queues, and so on.
* Queue now attempts to select a fallback queue when no valid queue is selected.
* Parties are now unready if the queue is updated.

'''Progression'''

* Progression track extended to 100 levels
* New Cosmetic Rewards have been added.
* Daily Contract Rewards updated.
* Dog tags now grant XP instead of Reputation in unranked queues.
* "Retrieve teammate dog tags" message on the kill feed will disappear if all dead teammates have had their dog tags taken out of their crates
* Void Crystal Daily Rewards updated

'''Gameplay'''

* Updated "Queued for Lobby" text.
* When in a screen (such as inventory screen), pressing shift no longer un-crouches a player.
* Health Pack Effectiveness Enhancements removed
* Decoy can now be canceled if it comes off cooldown while the decoy still exists.
* Activating it again kills all currently active decoys and spawns new ones.
* Increased hologram decoy health.
* Players can no longer fire their weapons or use abilities for a brief period after breaking stealth.

'''Inventory'''

* General inventory enhancements.
* Base weapon rarity removed.
* Suit, gun, and jetpack/cape emissives (parts that glow) are now toggled on for friendlies and off for enemies in-match.

'''Vendors'''

* Vendor unlock progression upgraded.

'''Map Generation'''

* Extraction pod spawns updated for each Security Level.

'''General Updates'''

* Updated Intro Movie to Season 1 version.
* Added a confirmation screen to the first time tutorial.

'''Misc. Fixes'''

* Fixed an issue where the EMP Rifle could not damage Players or Cybrids while ADS.
* Melee Cybrids can no longer attack while falling/jumping.
* Fixed an issue where spectators could show a damage boost as active even if it had expired.
* Fixed an issue where some abilities could be used while the consumable wheel was open.
* Fixed an issue where the Sentry Turret would show as an Assault Rifle on the kill feed.
* Fixed an issue where some doors would not be destroyed by the fog.
* Fixed an issue where the Speed on Damage enhancements would not work.

* Fixed an issue where audio setting sliders would not update audio.
* Fixed an issue where interacting with doors would play the wrong interaction sound.
* Fixed an issue where Switchblade Cybrids would continue their leap attack while staggered.
* Fixed an issue where remaining ammo VFX would not be hidden when the player activates stealth.
* Fixed an issue where duplicate weapon wraps could be rolled in the shop.
* Fixed an issue where crafting components would not load properly unless the player already had them.

'''Known Issues'''

* Items in the consumable merchants may sometimes appear locked out if players go to a different vendor before going to the consumable merchant. The lock in the consumable merchant does not block purchasing.
* Weapon wraps in the shop for the same weapon may not update the wrap properly. Buying will give the appropriate wrap based on name.
* The Daily Extraction widget in the lobby may not properly update.
* Bots may have an exaggerated jump in the larger rooms.
* Purchasing a token bundle may not show tokens as usable. Waiting a couple minutes will resolve this issue.
* Setting the queue team fill after the queue has started will not retain the setting chosen.
